Manchester City sign Monaco’s Benjamin Mendy

Manchester City have completed the signing of Monaco full back Benjamin Mendy.

The 23-year-old joins the Citizens for a fee of £52m to take the club’s spending to over £200m this summer.

Left back Mendy has made four appearances for France since making his debut in March.

“I am absolutely delighted to be joining Manchester City,” Mendy told the club’s official website.

“They are one of Europe’s leading Clubs and in Pep Guardiola they have a manager committed to playing attacking football.

“I am sure that over the next few years we will be successful.”

Mendy signed for Monaco last summer for a fee of £11m and made 34 appearances to help the club to the Ligue 1 title. He is Manchester City’s second signing in two days after the £32.5m move for Real Madrid’s Danilo.
